Historic homes require a wallpaper installer who understands the unique challenges of older construction. At Scott Wallpaper Installers, we have extensive experience working with pre-war buildings, brownstones, Victorian homes, and other historic properties throughout the New York area.
What Makes Historic Homes Different?
- Plaster walls that require different preparation than modern drywall
- Uneven surfaces, cracks, and imperfections that need careful repair
- Crown molding, wainscoting, and architectural details that demand precise cutting
- Period-appropriate wallcoverings that complement the home's character
- Adhesive selection that works with older wall materials
Our Approach
We begin every historic home project with a thorough wall assessment. We identify areas that need repair, test adhesion, and recommend the best preparation approach for your specific walls. We use primers and adhesives specifically formulated for plaster surfaces, ensuring a long-lasting installation that won't damage the underlying walls.
Whether you're restoring a brownstone to its original glory or adding a modern touch to a pre-war apartment, we have the skills and sensitivity to get it right. We work with specialty wallpaper suppliers who offer historically accurate patterns and materials, and we can advise on appropriate choices for your home's era and style.
